Talk about a cold weather tomato. It totally lives up to its namesake. They taste like typical hot-house tomatoes from the grocery store. Medium gel, with a mealy texture. That said, I only rate it 5/10…however, I would consider growing it again. Why? This plant produces loads of tomatoes that after 5-10 seconds in boiling water, the skin slips off perfectly with a squeeze, the stem anchor is narrow and easy to cut out, and they’re blemish free, which makes it super easy to turn into sauce; buckets of sauce. It’s still growing fruit and setting flowers this late into December.
